Saturday morning jumped out of bed
And put on my best suit
Got in my car and raced like a jet
All the way to you
Knocked on your door with heart in my hand
To ask you a question
'Cause I know that you're an old fashioned man
(Yeah, yeah)
Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Say yes, say yes
'Cause I need to know
You say "I'll never get your blessing 'till the day I die
Tough luck my friend, but the answer is no!"
Why you gotta be so rude?
Don't you know I'm human too
Why you gotta be so rude
I'm gonna marry her anyway
(Marry that girl) Marry her anyway
(Marry that girl) Yeah, no matter what you say
(Marry that girl) And we'll be a family
Why you gotta be so rude
I hate to do this, you leave no choice
Can't live without her
Love me or hate me, we will be boys
Standing at that alter
Or we will run away
To another galaxy, you know
You know she's in love with me
She will go anywhere I go
Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Say yes, say yes
'Cause I need to know
You say "I'll never get your blessing 'till the day I die
Tough luck my friend, but the answer's still no!"
Why you gotta be so rude?
Don't you know I'm human too
Why you gotta be so rude
I'm gonna marry her anyway
(Marry that girl) Marry her anyway
(Marry that girl) Yeah no matter what you say
(Marry that girl) And we'll be a family
Why you gotta be so rude?
Rude
Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Say yes, say yes
'Cause I need to know
You say "I'll never get your blessing 'till the day I die
Tough luck my friend, no still means no"
Why you gotta be so rude?
Don't you know I'm human too
Why you gotta be so rude
I'm gonna marry her anyway
(Marry that girl) Marry her anyway
(Marry that girl) Yeah no matter what you say
(Marry that girl) And we'll be a family
Why you gotta be so rude?
(Yeah, oh)
Why you gotta be so rude?
(Yeah)
Why you gotta be so rude?
